I also love to hear your feedback so please post a quick review to Amazon and/or Goodreads once you've read it.

"Because a box is just a box, except when it's not." Join in the creative fun as a little boy explains why his box is his favourite toy.

The Box took
me right back to my childhood and my children's childhood. Now, I can read it
to my grandchildren and tell them how I played with a box and how their Mom or
Dad did. Jo Linsdell has written a fun book with illustrations that will touch
your heart and take you back in time. It has just the right number of words and
sentences to connect to your toddler's imagination and stay within their
attentive span. When I get a new book for the grandchildren I often bring
something to go with it like seeds and a shovel for a book about a garden. How
neat is this. I will only need to find a discarded box! Imagination is a
wonderful thing to promote. This really does deserve 5 stars. Fran Touchette

I loved this
book! The Box by Jo Linsdell has all the makings of a favorite children's book:
simple,imaginative and fun. I wish I had this book when my boy was a toddler,
but there are others in my life who are going to enjoy seeing all the creative
things they can do with a box. And then, I'm sure, they will want to
immediately read the book again! Congratulations to Jo Linsdell on a very
lovely book. JDB

What an
adorable book! A great way to inspire kids to be creative with something basic.
Whimsical font choice and fun illustrations make this a treat for the parent as
well. Sarah Wright

Jo Linsdell
is a genius. The Box, is a delightful little book and fun to read to little
ones. The story is simply done, with just the right amount of text and the
illustrations add to it perfectly. My youngest child clients absolutely love
it. It's so much fun to read about all the imaginative activities a child could
do with a box. (And to think an adult wrote this!) After the story ends I
encourage kids to think up more ways to use a box...."Because a box is
just a box, except when it's not." This is a wonderful book and I highly
recommend it. Susie Caron

The most
expensive toy will never match up with a simple large box. Ms. Linsdell does an
awesome job with this fun and simple children's picture book that brought back
nostalgic memories for me. A box holds so many possibilities and the
imagination is endless! :)The artwork is beautiful, clear and engaging for
both a child and the adult reading the story. I really enjoy the clean
simplicity. A great book for that special boy who will always remember the fun
he had with a simple box! This is a great indoor/rainy day or outdoor fun
story! Works all
around! :) Denise Bolds

What I’ve
always loved about Linsdell’s children’s books is their simplicity and
creativity. As a mom, she knows what young readers are looking for. She proves
this once again with The Box. How often do parents joke that we buy our kids a
bunch of toys for their birthday and they end up playing with the boxes?
Linsdell truly gets into the heart of a child with this one. The adorable
illustrations keep the reader focused on the boy and his magic box that he can
transform into anything. cheryl c malandrinos

The text,
illustrations, and the theme of the book is simplicity at its best. It is not
complicated, fancy, or hard to understand. The book shares the creative
possibilities of taking a simple cardboard box and using imagination to let it
become an endless array of possibilities to entertain and amuse young children.
The thought struck me as I read it how things in life need to be simplified to
the basics. A great book for adults to share with young children Azur

This is the first children's book That I put on my Kindle, My children especially youngest 2 (3 & 4) are always trying to catch a glimpse of what mom i reading so they will be delighted to know that now there is something on there for them, I can't wait for them to spot it.
